Violently
by Angela CottermanIt is not so unusual
that I should have read
Little Women at eleven,
or even, that the copy
belonged to my mother,
a gift from my father
when they were older,
in their time, than I was.
The problem, however,
was that Alcott killed
so sweetly, and the next
morning, my sister died. 03/09/2007 Posted on 03/09/2007

| Posted by Anne Boulender on 03/10/07 at 02:08 AM this is pretty interesting. i'm not sure what it means, just that ending is pretty abrupt (sp?) in a good way. |
